Axiom MCP1650-H001E30-AX 200G QSFP56 passive DAC cable 1m

SKU CH-SJVA-QWXH8 MPN MCP1650-H001E30-AX

A 200 Gbps QSFP56 passive DAC cable with Mellanox-compatible coding and MSA compliance for 1 metre direct-attach links

  • 200 Gbps throughput for high-density interconnects with QSFP56 form factor
  • 1 metre passive copper reach reduces rack cable clutter
  • Mellanox-coded EEPROM ensures switch port recognition without manual configuration
  • MSA-compliant construction guarantees operation in multi-vendor environments
  • Pre-serialised part MCP1650-H001E30-AX simplifies asset tracking and spares management

Axiom 200G QSFP56 Passive DAC

The Axiom MCP1650-H001E30-AX is a 200G QSFP56 passive direct attach cable built for InfiniBand HDR links. It ships pre-coded for Mellanox compatibility and meets multi-sourcing agreement requirements for use in compliant switches and routers. The one-metre twinax assembly carries unique serialization to avoid address conflicts in dense deployments.

Suited for high-density HDR clusters

This cable suits administrators wiring 200G QSFP56 ports in Mellanox-based HDR fabrics where a short, low-latency copper link is preferred. It is not for links that exceed the one-metre reach, for active optical or transceiver-based connections, or for ports using a different form factor or data rate.

Stable under continuous HDR traffic

As a passive twinax design the cable adds no active components that could throttle or introduce jitter during sustained 200G throughput. Signal integrity is maintained by the MSA-compliant construction and factory serialization, so the link remains consistent across long-running compute or storage workloads without the thermal variation seen in active modules.

Questions about this item

What port type must my switch or NIC have to use this 200G QSFP56 passive DAC?

The cable terminates in QSFP56 connectors, so each end requires a 200G QSFP56 port on the switch, router or network adapter.

Can I mix this 1m cable with longer Axiom 200G QSFP56 DACs in the same link?

Yes, the cable is fully MSA compliant and pre-coded for OEM compatibility, so it will interoperate with other compliant 200G QSFP56 direct-attach cables of different lengths.

How can I verify the link is operating at 200G after installation?

Check the port statistics on your switch or host — the interface should report a 200Gb/s speed, zero CRC errors and a healthy signal-to-noise ratio on both lanes.
